As Ghandi said “Be the change you wish to see in this world.” I’ve learn it will go on with or without you, so I want to be someone who impacts the world.

I take more responsibility for my actions now. Whenever I thought that I couldn’t do something, everyone at FloCrit helped me and encouraged me to try. I’ve built back family relationships. Now, there’s more communication between my mom and I!
